FRAGRANCE OF LOVE

4 | HER PASSION

Chapter 4,

Suddenly, someone unexpected comes in Ellie's art class. It's Alex, Aryan's best friend, and his presence surprises everyone since he's a commerce student.

Alex: "Hey friends, what's up? Who is the best artist among you all?"

Class: "Ellie is quite a professional student in this class."

(Ellie sits confused, not understanding what is going on or who Alex is.)

Alex: "Who is Ellie?"

Ellie: "Yes, I am."

Alex: "Oh hey Ellie, actually, I need your help. When are you free? We can discuss it."

Ellie: "Sure, after class, I'll meet you in the canteen."

Alex: "Okay, great. Thank you so much."

Ellie: "It's my pleasure."

After class, Ellie and Ariza wait for Alex in the canteen. Ellie wonders what kind of help Alex might need, and Ariza informs her that Alex is Aryan's best friend. Ariza is quite excited about meeting him.

Alex arrives at the canteen.

Alex: "Sorry girls, I hope you didn't have to wait too long."

Ariza: "No, no, we enjoy waiting."

Ellie: "Ariza, be quiet. Yes, Alex, what help do you need from me?"

Alex: "First of all, I'm very sorry for making you wait. Actually, my friend's birthday is next month, and I want to give him a painting as a gift. You're a very good artist, so could you please help me with this?"

Ellie: "Actually, Alex, I've never made a painting as a gift before. I'm not sure if I can do it."

Alex: "Please, Ellie, I'm counting on you. I'll pay you whatever you need, but please help me."

Ellie: "It's not about the money. Ahh, okay, fine. I'll do my best to make the painting for your friend. By the way, when is his birthday?"

Alex: "Next month on the 14th."

Ellie: "Okay, please send me his picture via WhatsApp or bring it to me."

Alex: "Send me your number, and I'll send it right away."

Ellie: "XXXXXXXX76"

Alex: "Okay, thank you. I'll send it now. And by the way, girls, you should come to the party next month. I'm planning a surprise party for him and I'm specially inviting you."

Ariza: "Sure, we've helped a lot, so we definitely will come."

Ellie: "Shut up, Ariza. Sorry, Alex, don't mind her. Anyway, we'll definitely come."

Alex: "No problem. Your friend is quite interesting. I'll be glad if both of you come. See you then. Bye."

Ellie: "Yes, definitely. Bye."

Ellie: "Ariza, how will I make this painting?"

Ariza: "You'll manage; you're a professional student. Anyway, he has sent the picture. Look at it and tell me what you think about Aryan. (She said with a laugh.)"

Ellie: "You talk too much. Let's go; class time is up."

That night at midnight, Ellie was reading a novel when she suddenly remembered she needed to paint Aryan. She hadn't seen the picture yet, so she took out her phone, opened Alex's chat, and looked at the photo.

Ellie thought, "Allah has created such a beautiful world... and among the many beautiful creations in this world, you are one."

Ellie focused on the picture Alex sent and began her work. Seeing Aryan's photo made her realize she needed to use her creativity to its fullest. She thought this was a great opportunity to showcase her skills and create a special gift.

That night, Ellie took out her canvas and paints and started working on the painting. She placed Aryan's photo in front of her and began capturing his features in detail. Ellie tried to depict Aryan's smile and unique characteristics with her painting.

She was driven by a passion to fulfill Alex's request and create a painting that Aryan would love. Ellie planned to make a masterpiece that would be special for both Alex and Aryan.

As she worked through the night, Ellie found joy in her work and felt that this painting would perfectly showcase her dedication and passion. She thought this challenge, given by Alex, was a new opportunity for her to excel.

After several days of working on the painting, Ellie faced some difficulties and experienced a creative block. She struggled with various issues and after a while of intense effort,
